Please either add a gettext context or, better, duplicate the messages: # First argument is "Would link" or "Linked". #: misc-utils/hardlink.c:354 #, c-format msgid " %s %s to %s\n" into: msgid " Would link %s to %s\n" msgid " Linked %s to %s\n" and duplicate this: # First argument is "Would link" or "Linked". # Second and third ones are file names. # Fourth one is "would save" or "saved". #: misc-utils/hardlink.c:360 #, c-format msgid " %s %s to %s, %s %jd\n" into: msgid " Would link %s to %s, would save %jd\n" msgid " Linked %s to %s, saved %jd\n" I believe it will make the messages more undestandible and easier to translate also in other languages. -- Petr --kunpHVz1op/+13PW Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iHUEABEIAB0WIQRLUoOT5qOw37LvOmQSycXHZ8b6ogUCXPKLLwAKCRASycXHZ8b6 oicXAQCMqYliwTqvXpCWEPKYDIvSTHpsvGMiBR0si8+5bA9YjAD/c90w14nu71sm fSGCOU+fhLkpZ0sJkP91f2l6zxYHits= =kXn9 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --kunpHVz1op/+13PW--
